Heemkamer Barthold van Heessel: collecting the village

The Heemkamer Barthold van Heessel in Aarle-Rixtel combines local documentation with material heritage. Photo albums, archive material and themed rooms offer different ways into the history of the village.

Plan your visit ↗

From photo to question

A photo can prompt you to research a place or person further. Note down what you want to know and ask what documentation is available, without assuming open access to all archive documents.

Various village subjects

Religion, archaeology, crafts and daily life are mentioned as themes. See how the current display links these subjects and what explanations accompany the objects.

Exploring further outside

Village walks can start from the Heemhuis. They are planned separately; an open heemkamer does not automatically mean that a guide is available for a walk.

Before you go

Check the split Wednesday opening and the first Sunday of the month. Groups arrange their visit in advance; if you have limited mobility, ask which rooms are accessible.
